3 Minute Evaluation Reflection

Well, you had the opportunity to see yourself as others see you. Your classmates provided feedback and you had the chance to critically assess your performance.

Post a comment and tell me:
1) your name
2) 1 thing you did well (and by the way, everybody did at least 1 thing well)
3) at least 1 thing you will improve the next time you have to make a presentation.

Again, I want to see reflective, thorough sentences: "I will not chew gum" is not reflective nor thorough enough. Anyone not meeting this requirement will be asked to comment again if they want credit! Have fun!
